After the initial accusation toward Russia and the Rebels, the today's silence of the media over this incident is rather telling. The russian
goverment evidence presentation cannot be ignored as it showed an aircraft tailing the MH17 for whatever reasons and the deviation of MH17 to the
north trajectory before heading back south. we have yet to see the US satellite or signal intercept from the MH17 incident , which is pretty strange
considering all the accusation and blame and sactions that already aired by western goverments..

one fact for certain, after this disaster the previously reluctant EU now impose new sactions to Russia. Coincidence ?

Without a shred of public evidence to support their claim that Moscow was involved in the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, the United States
and Europe have levied a new round of sanctions on Russia. The sanctions, which are designed to restrict Russia’s access to both capital and
technology, will be imposed as soon as August 1, despite the fact that Moscow has repeatedly denied either involvement in the incident or of providing
material support for the militants fighting in east Ukraine. Not surprisingly, Russia will not be given a chance to defend itself in court or present
its case before an independent tribunal.

In contrast, the US hasn’t lifted a finger to help the investigation even though it has the most advanced, state-of-the-art surveillance systems in
the world and even though it had a satellite — capable of reading a license plate from outer space — hovering directly overhead at the time the
aircraft blew up.

“Pentagon officials told CNN (on Tuesday) that the Ukrainian government fired three ballistic missiles towards the federalists during the last 48
hours.” (Moon of Alabama)

If the Pentagon picked up the ballistic missile launches on their radar, they certainly saw the surface-to-air missiles that brought down MH17. Case
closed.

So why hasn’t Washington been more forthcoming with the information they have? Why are they basing their judgment on the nonsense they’ve gleaned
from social media and Twitter feeds instead of spy-in-the-sky photos and satellite imagery? Why are they dragging their feet and obstructing the
investigation? And why, for God sakes, why has Europe agreed to go along with this charade when they know there’s not a scintilla of evidence
linking Russia to the downed plane?

* - For starters an investigation occurs before any court / tribunal.
* - Those forums would be where the arguments are made by both sides.
* - Under international law the US has offered technical assistance / investigators.
* - Primary investigation falls to the country the incident occurred in. In this case Ukraine, and unless Ukraine requests the US assistance, there
is not one thing we can do about.

* - The Dutch are in the lead because of the number of nationals they lost.

The conclusions / comments made in the article are being made by an individual who does not seem to know the protocol / laws for how this works.

People demand the US release its evidence.
The US did.
Those who did not like the outcome ignored / dismissed it. Just as is being done in the article.

im sorry that is not how it happened. when the MH17 incident happened, the western leaders and media immediately blamed russia and rebels.. that can
be seen from all mainstream media heavily leaned toward blaming russia.

i saw this as another provocation from US to push EU toward another sanction , or at least using this tragedy for their political gains.

and ao far US never released any evidence , of course real evidence and not some fake stuff from social media. Im pretty sure US got enough data on
the shooting , they just havent released it yet for some reason.

funnily after the barrage of initial accusations by western leaders , now they seem to paddle back and wait for evidence..

-----

For a good comparison, anyone remember the Flight 800 incident ? even after many people suspected it was a terrorist attack by missile, no goverment
person/leader/official start any accusation against anyone but they all wait for the investigation.

-----

so basically everyone should work together in this investigation, not provoking or accusing or sanctioning like mad before the result

something is not right here.. im sure the Cockpit Voice Recorder and the ATC communication will show something , maybe a mayday call from the pilot
when he got attacked by unknown fighter and take a evasive action north ?

but suspiciously the ATC recording was forcibly taken by Ukrainian Secret Service SBU.. why ? and since then they havent released it , why ? what are
they doing with the ATC recording ? are they afraid of something in there ?

Let see the ATC recording and Cockpit voice recorder data , i hope they are not 'doctored' by certain agencies

According to the coordinates from FR24 and Flightaware they dud no such thing. They flew a straight track the entire time until they were shot
down.

The other plane that popped up on radar (I assume you are talking about the Russian radar) didn't show up until after the flight was hit, and stayed
on radar about the same amount of time it would have taken debris from the flight to fall.

As for the transcript, those are never released until the investigators have examined them.
